Answer:

Punish.

Explanation:

The given passage in the question is from Harper Lee's "To Kill A Mockingbird" Chapter 4 where Scout, Jem and their friend Dill were playing. The exact passage is from when Scout, our narrator, had just offended her brother and didn't realize it. So, the next chance that Jem got to pay back his younger sister for 'offending him' when she "<em>contradicted him on Hot Steams</em>", he did so.

They were playing with an old tire when Jem pushed it so hard that Scout couldn't see properly, "<em>Ground, sky and  houses melted into a mad palette</em>". She got rolled up all the way, crashing at the Radleys' steps.

In this passage, Scout used the word "reward" in an ironic and sarcastic way, implying that due to her offence of disagreeing with her brother before, he had now taken a chance to punish her for that.
